Clint's arrow split the dime size clay pigeon before embedding in the target down the range. " You missed Clint, by just a shade left. Cap is going to take you this time."
Hawkeye shrugged as he set his bow down," Can't think of a better guy to lose to. Besides, I blame Logan. This is the last time we let him run in to the store for refreshments, this is only my third one, and I'm not sure I want to finish it."
Atlas laughed, "I don't see any problems with it, do you Logan?"
Cap's identicard chirped. It was, of all people, Jarvis calling
************
The movie let out and Melissa led Jennifer and Tally out into the evening night. The romantic comedy had been both a good movie and a welcome night out. "Tally, now do you understand why we said to hold off on the questions and it would make more sense?" Melissa asked as she ate a couple pieces of her leftover popcorn.
As Tally and Mel talked, Jenn spotted a familiar face across the street walking away. He was older, with a goatee and his hair greyed, but she definitely recognized Emil Blonsky.
************
It had been a wonderful evening for Matt, not quite what he had planned as Tabitha had pushed up his timetable quite a bit . Tab was now asleep in his arms, her heartbeat finally starting to settle after their activities. He could hear something outside the door, just before it flung in. " I should have known, find you in some man's bed. Get up and get dessed Tabitha, we need to go!" He demanded with a heavy Russian accent as he tossed her clothes on the bed
Tabitha sprung awake at the sound of the new arrival, quickly pulling the covers over them modestly, " Uncle Mikhail? What... Get out! I will speak with you in a moment." "Fine, one minute. Dress so we can go" Mikhail demanded and stepped from Matt's bedroom
Tab pulled the blanket over her head, and grumbled what Matt knew was a string of russian curses.

Cap takes the communicard. "Hold that thought, gentlemen." Activating the card, he looks into the display. "Cap here. How can we be of service today, Jarvis?"

Tally looks at the too older ladies, "Not really. I mean I get the idea but why don't people discuss it when it happens as the main character just was not being direct at all. I mean you can see she liked the man then why did she just not go up and take what she wanted. I mean that is how X-eee did it. But mind you the few times I watched these types of shows X-eeee just said they were garbage and switched it to something more amusing."

Atlas laughed, "I don't see any problems with it, do you Logan?"
"He's just upset it's not that swill he calls beer. America, home of the Super Bowl, yet can't brew a damn beer."

Matt had been enjoying the moments with Tabitha. He had hoped to take things slow with her for fear if this relationship turning out like his others, however circumstances seemed to continually get in the way of that. While things had sped along faster than he had planned, in the end he was glad it did, as he felt her warmth and heartbeat.
He was leaning to place a kiss on her head when he heard the sound outside. He immediately starts to reach for one of his batons but the man burst in before he could reach it. He was still going to grab for it when the man starts talking and Tabitha responds.
With her head under the blanket Matt says, "and here I thought meeting your parents was awkward." He paused and said, "we should get dressed so we can go with your... did you say uncle?"

"Yeah, well, not everyone is like X-23 thankfully." Melissa replied to Tally. " The movie was meant to be amusing, not the slam bam thank you ma'am stuff X would prefer. I bet she is a WWE fan too, probably thinks it's real." She chuckled.
Things were quiet as Spidey went for a leisurely swing through the city, high enough to be out of sight of people on the street. Mary Jane was at a last minute commercial shoot and would not be home until late, so he had sometime to kill, but it was too late to call Cap to take him up on the offer to hang out with the guys for the evening. Just as he thought of other Avengers, he spotted the female members of the team just exiting a theatre, the billboard showing it was playing a new movie MJ had been hinting to go see. As he continued his swing, the night was calm. Traffic was light, there were not many people on the street for a nice evening. A couple figures on a building watching the street below. The stars were almost visible and the moon was coming up. It was a peaceful evening.
*********
Hawkeye grinned, " At least living here, you get out of your igloo and join civilization. Who watches your huskies for you? I didn't see your dog sled around any wheres."
"Those almost sound like fighting words." Eric warned
"not at all, big guy. Just a little banter." Clint replied
Jarvis' voice came across the communicard, " Good evening sir, sorry to interrupt your evening. I just wanted to speak with you concerning a visitor we just had. A very large gentleman claiming to Tabitha's uncle was here moments ago looking for her to go home. When I told him she was out for the evening, he disappeared with a flash of light. Very strange sir, I thought you would want to know."
listening in, Eric looked at Clint and Logan, " Who is Tabby's uncle?"
********
"Let me talk to him first, while you get dressed." Tabitha replied as she slid out from under the covers and began picking up clothes. Even without his sight, he could tell Tabby had no inklings of modesty as she went from completely naked to fully dressed, " I don't think you understand, he doesn't want me to go back to Russia, he wants my help on the Earth I came from."
She stepped out of Matt's room and pulled the door shut, but he could still here the animated arguement in Russian from the other side of his door. It was too fast and heated to catch much, but he did here a few names dropped. Venom. Doom. Overlord. Then there was a pulse of something that disrupted Matt's radar sense for just a moment, then the hallway was silent.

"Thank you, Jarvis. Can you relay the feed from the security cameras or provide a description to Logan? It might help matters." Steve holds his communicard out to Logan, waiting for his response.

Logan smirked, finishing off another beer. "Soon as he can drink this, and shoot straight, then he'll bother me."
"...damnit...Mikhail Rasputin, Peter's brother. Alternate timeline. Mutant X, if you take away the need for a host."

Matt climbs out of bed. Being blind, he really never put much thought into modesty. He did however decide to dress to try to lighten the awkwardness that seems to be involved when meeting any of Tabby's family.
He just slides some sweat pants up his legs when there is a pulse and the hall goes silent.
He follows behind the way Tabby went and as he opens the door he says, "Tabby what was that pulse?"

"A spiderguy could get used to this..." Spider-Man swings freely through the city, enjoying the evening air. "There's the girls... Maybe I could... Nah. They want their time together by themselves I'm sure. Girls night out. I wish MJ wasn't still out... Should've called Cap. Oh well, this is truly nice." Spider-Man looks at the couple of figures on the roof of the building to make sure they weren't getting into any trouble, and then keeps swinging on.

"Slam, bam, thank-you ma'am? I am sorry I do not know what that is or what that means but if you explain it to me." She replies with the naivety of a girl who still has not been out of the tube long but curiosity that matches a 16 (or she might be 17 by now, lol) year old.

"Of course Captain." Jarvis replied, and then it began to display the front entrance monitor display. The man that approached certainly appeared to Logan to indeed be Mikhail, except he appeared older with greying hair and a few more wrinkles and scars. After a quick interaction with Jarvis, he indeed teleported away with a flash of light. Once the replay was done, Jarvis reappeared on the communicard, ". Should I attempt to warn her? I wanted to make contact with you first, sir."
Clint, after watching the monitor replay, spoke up," Judging by the look on Logan''s face, tonight is about to get much more interesting."
" Best head for home and suit up I guess." Eric agreed.
******
Jenn butted in on Melissa," I'll be back in a minute, thought I recognized someone." She Hulk left the other two Avengers and crossed the street and started up the street, a bit of a determined look on her face.
Melissa shrugged as Jennifer left," Okay Jenn, we'll wait for you." She turned back to Tally," What I meant was X likes her violence and action start to finish, just as she does things. Movies are meant to be entertaining, but most of them are fiction, so they throw in outrageous situations that would almost never happen for laughs and drag out the story. It's meant to be a fun night out. You didn't enjoy it?"
As Spiderman continued swinging, the two figures on the roof did not notice him, and instead turned and began moving from rooftop to rooftop, jumping with ease that no normal person could even consider, following the edge of the building so they could watch someone below.
*****
Utter silence answered Matt as his radar sense slowly returned. As he reached and opened the door, both Tabitha and the intruder she called Uncle Mikhail were gone. As if they were never there at all.

"Please send out a general alert, Jarvis." Steve unbuttoned his shirt to reveal his uniform beneath. "Alright people, let's head in." He pulled his mask over his face.

"I did enjoy it but I guess it is really hard to make sense of it all. I guess I just don't understand the intricacies of the rest of the human race. Either that or I am not old enough. But you know what that is ok as I will learn after all as that is what going out like this is all about. I mean no offence to X-eee but she never let me out at all for fear." Tally responds as she looks around at the girls

"Well, there goes my nice quiet night. At least this time, I don't have a pie to keep safe for Aunt May." Spider-Man swings over and lands silently (Prowl1d100/67%) on the same rooftop as the two figures. He watches for just 15 seconds before he busts out with "You two come here often?" and waits for them to turn around to see who they are.
